[Healeys] BN1 wheel bearing

[Alan Seigrist]

Mr. Ward Special -

If you suspect it is the front, usually a hard left or right turn (at
about 20-30 mph) and the resultant noise should give you a good idea
which side.  If checking rear, do drunken S turns in your neighborhood
(at 20 mph) - noise will increase if bad at the back.

I suspect front bearings - rear bearings are more or less bullet proof.
